Board minutes here discuss the issue: http://www.apache.org/foundation/records/minutes/2004/board_minutes_2004_= 02_18.txt D. Discussion: copyright ownership Although initiated due to the current efforts for Spam Assassin, the board discussed at length the issues and guidelines regarding copyright ownership for the ASF. It was agreed that all files should have 1 single copyright to the ASF. Copyrights extend to the work as a whole, and the ASF must have these. The use of the CHANGES files should note any "history" regarding copyrights and that the use of 'author' tags should be discouraged for this and other reasons. It looks like there is/was discussion on this issue after these minutes = were produced, so I'm not sure if this was the final word on the = subject. Should we be removing author tags? My 2 cents: It's nice to see who have made changes to source, without = having to wander into viewCVS. -----Original Message----- From: ceki@apache.org [mailto:ceki@apache.org] Sent: Fri 9/3/2004 6:14 AM To: logging-log4j-cvs@apache.org Cc:=09 Subject: cvs commit: logging-log4j/src/xdocs faq.xml ceki 2004/09/03 06:14:19 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: log4j-dev-unsubscribe@logging.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: log4j-dev-help@logging.apache.org
